Hi Chula,

I don't want to be offensive, but that is your problem isn't it? You're responsible for your acting. If you shouldn't be surfing the web while you're at work, then don't do it and if you do it anyway then be responsible for what you do. I don't consider it good to try to hide your behaviour. This is your intention, isn't it?

I think you took my post a little too seriously. Anyway, It's not that I shouldn't be surfing the web at work - the holiday season is slow so there's less work. But yes, I agree that its my problem - doesn't hurt to make a suggestion though I would think?

If you have firefox, you can install the adblock plus addon and selectively block any image you want.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." -- C. S. Lewis

Hey, Chula,

I'd suggest you take Accinteyos advice a bit more seriously.

He pointed you straight back to your intentions, which is....? To cover up what your boss shouldn't know....

Agreed that my intention was to hide that I was checking the site from my work colleagues. I should be more upfront about it.. if someone sees it and a conversation ensues, I might even be able to introduce some people to the Dhamma.. my problem has been that I've been quite a bad introducer - giving too much detail and scaring people away when I really should just be giving some basic points.. this should be good practice for me.

Hi Chula,

surely making a suggestion doesn't hurt. All I was trying to point out is: watch your intention.

It's the same for me. I use Safari on an oldish Mac and my screen is 1024 x 768 pixels. The header doesn't quite wrap into one line, using my default settings. If I zoom out, the header wraps but all the text is just a bit too small for comfortable reading.So if one of the technical people has the time and inclination to make that small change, I too would be grateful. It wouldn't need much work, AFAIK, and would still look good.
